Nasturtiums are very fun to grow. The seeds are big and easy to handle. The large seeds and the fast growth rate of nasturtiums makes them a favorite in childrens' gardens. All parts of the nasturtium are edible including the stems. They have a peppery taste. They like cool weather, and they will be long gone by summertime. Plant seeds in the early spring time and in the fall. They also like poor soil which is unusual. The only other plant I can think of that likes poor soil is Morning Glories.
Nasturtiums are loaded with vitamin C. The seeds have been used historically as an antibiotic and for respiratory and urniary tract infections.
